Blueberry Buttermilk Muffins image

This is my adopted recipe Feb 2005 I didn't change the recipe ingredients because 11 members found it good the way it was. I did add 1 teaspoon vanilla as suggested by 1 reviewer. I used 1/2 cup canola oil instead of butter. 2 heaping cups frozen blueberries mixed with a little of the flour mixture to make sure they didn't stick together. I made 6 giant muffins. Very good muffins. I had to bake mine for 35 minutes, they were so big.

  • Bake for 15 minutes, lower the oven temperature to 350*F and bake for another 12 to 15 minutes or until the muffins spring back when pressed lightly.

Tips:

  • Choose the right buttermilk: Buttermilk is the key ingredient in these muffins, so it's important to use fresh, high-quality buttermilk. If you don't have buttermilk on hand, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in tough muffins. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a muffin pan with liners: Muffin liners will help the muffins bake evenly and prevent them from sticking to the pan.
  • Fill the muffin cups to the top: This will ensure that the muffins rise properly.
  • Bake the muffins at a high temperature: Baking the muffins at a high temperature will help them to rise quickly and evenly. Reduce the temperature after 10 minutes to prevent the muffins from overbrowning.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before serving: This will allow the muffins to set and develop their full flavor.
